A new method to define a digital signature of a painting is presented. This signature is composed by a set of patches that are automatically selected as the images regions containing the most relevant information. The region selection is applied on a combination of saliency maps related to different features concerning intensity, color and visual saliency. We present the generation of the featu...

This paper looks at the motivation for simulating painting directly on 3D objects, and investigates the main issues faced by such systems. These issues include the provision of natural user interfaces, the reproduction of realistic brush effects and the surface parameterization for texture mapping so that the results of the painting can be stored on texture maps. The paper further investigates ...

from the nineteenth century onwards, exactly at the time when paintings no longer relied on literature for their images, and their topics were not taken from literary sources, literature became highlyinspired by painting. manette salomon, a novel about a failed painter, is allocated to describe such an artistic environment. manette salomon is a character who appeares only in the second half of ...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) enable paralyzed patients to communicate; however, up to date, no creative expression was possible. The current study investigated the accuracy and user-friendliness of P300-Brain Painting, a new BCI application developed to paint pictures using brain activity only. Two different versions of the P300-Brain Painting application were tested: A colored matrix teste...

It is difficult for consumers to judge whether a painting or poster would fit well in their rooms without actually mounting the painting on the wall. A solution is proposed to allow users to their DROID mobile phones to preview what the painting looks like on the wall using the phone’s camera and its screen. The system is a marker-based, augmented-reality system that can place paintings on wall...

The paper reports results on the automation of the spray-painting process in industrial powder coating plants. The automation of the spray-painting process requires a painting model and the definition of appropriate metrics for painting task validation. Two main topics are addressed in the paper: motion planning of paint deposition and paint quality analysis. A paint quality function is formula...

the present research with an emphasis on coffee houses at qajar age has recognized motives and effect of social and political factors such as conditional event in formation of art traditions in coffee house so as to examine the communication function of coffee house painting at this space. coffee house at qajar age has been found as a place for people’s gathering which had communicative-cultura...

Introduction: Lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) brain images are known to affect automated image registration and segmentation. Improved registration of MS brains has been demonstrated, by prior in-painting of lesions with white matter (WM) signal intensity (SI) derived from neighboring voxels [1]. Here we present an alternative fully-automated approach using the whole-brain histogram and imag...
